Carbon, hydrogen and sulphur were determined in biomass (shoots and roots) of five species of shrub willow: Salix viminalis, Salix dasyclados, Salix triandra, Salix purpurea and Salix alba. Samples of the biomass collected from a strict experiment were dried to constant weight at 105oC. The content of carbon, hydrogen and sulphur was determined in an automatic determinator ELTRA CHS 500. In add...

AP2/ERF genes encode transcriptional regulators with a variety of functions in plant growth and development and in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. To date, there are no detailed classification and expression profiles for AP2/ERF genes in Salix. In this study, a comprehensive computational analysis identified 173 AP2/ERF superfamily genes in willow (Salix arbutifolia), by using in silic...

In a greenhouse experiment, two strains of plant growth promoting rizobacteria (PGPR) mixture of (ICARDA-441 and ARC-202) as seed inoculants, and white willow (Salix alba) extract as foliar and seed treatment were tested for induction systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in faba bean plants against Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV). The results demonstrated that BYMV challenged plants emerged from ...

The aim of this study was to investigate and to compare the extractability, bioaccessibility, and bioavailability in vitro of antioxidative compounds from bark of selected Salix species: S. alba (SA), S. daphnoides (SD), S. purpurea (SP), and S. daphnoides x purpurea (SDP) hybrid willow clones originating from their natural habitats and cultivated on the sandy soil. The highest amount of phenol...

Abstract The Wax Lake Delta (WLD) is an actively prograding delta in the Mississippi River Plain that otherwise experiencing widespread degradation and submergence of its coastal wetlands. WLD accumulating mineral organic sediment increases soil surface elevation, changing emergent wetland communities as young develops. There uncertainty how dynamics community composition respond to net changes...

Salix nigra (black willow) is a widespread tree that hosts many species of polylectic hymenopterans and oligolectic bees the genus Andrena. The early flowering S. makes it an important nutritive resource for arthropods emerging from hibernation. However, since dioecious, not all insect visits will lead to successful pollination. Using both visual observation pan-trapping, we characterized commu...

The recent Landscape Plan of Tuscany Region pays particular attention towards the floodplain woods, for their conservation concern, landscape, and historical importance. forest vegetation is defined as natural semi-natural wood located close to rivers submerged only during exceptional flooding. We gathered 180 both published unpublished relevés coming from carried out in where Alnus glutinosa ,...

506 Abstract: Present study was to investigate antioxidant and anti inflammatory effects of salix tetrasperma Roxb in rats. The Hydroalcoholicic extract of salix tetrasperma Roxb (100 and 200 mg/kg body weight) was studied for anti-inflammatory in animal models. The activity was studied in carragenan induced rats paw edema against indomethacin as standard, and it showed significant anti inflamm...
